The State Department of Health Services is now accepting applications from specific types of health care service providers for funding from $110 million allotted to the state under the CARES Act.
The funds will be used to make payments to offset the losses and expenditures these providers have experienced due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
$100 million will be distributed among groups of eligible providers, including home and community-based service providers, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, and emergency medical service providers.
The remaining $10 million will be directed toward rural health clinics, Federally Qualified Health Centers, Tribal Health Clinics, and free and low cost clinics.
